LOVE LESSONS - APRIL COSMIC OUTLOOK

The astrology of March/April 2025 takes no prisoners in demanding a reset of our relationships. A remarkable interweaving of Saturn with the eclipses and retrogrades of Venus and Mercury, teaches us to face what we may have been avoiding. Give up your fantasies and face your fears, for its time to get real about who you love, who loves you, and what’s really going on.

After Venus and Mercury both turn retrograde at 10 degrees in Aries, the solar eclipse of March 29th hits the exact same degree. Remarkable synchronicity. And the message is clear.

1. Re-evaluate what you want from the VIP’s in your life, and how to communicate it. Start by asking ‘Is this what I want?’, ‘Is it good for my self-esteem’? Am I or my partner selfish? What happens when we conflict or disagree?
   
   
2. Expect to navigate an eruption of sorts when the solar eclipse blows away resistance to facing a truth. Painful maybe, but now you get to reset.

In April, Venus and Mercury stop and turn around right alongside Saturn in Pisces. The coincidence of this again is remarkable. Furthermore, it takes place exactly opposite the dramatic March 14th lunar eclipse in Virgo.

If the astrology of March signals a time to re-evaluate our relationships, then April teaches us how to go forward. With Saturn centre stage, we must learn to grow up and accept facts. What are the facts according to Pisces?

1. Relationships based on fantasy, illusion, projection, co-dependency, or victim/rescuer patterns crash back to earth with a thud.
   
   
2. We learn to let go, as criticism and fault finding fails to control outcomes.
   
   
3. Sad, yet softer in heart, a way to healthier relating appears. Keywords? Kindness, compassion, and commitment. In the here and now, as we both find the courage to be vulnerable, the real me meets the real you.
